Evan is coming and he’s looking for other brave Dragon Masters to blaze a trail of peace and justice across Maple World! Do you think you’ve got what it takes?
From March 31 through May 5, 2010, your Evan can take part in the Trailblazer Evan event! What do you need to do? Simple enough--level up to 10, make the first job advancement, hack and slash monsters, and acquire “Evan’s Sweat Droplets.” Acquire enough of the tangible evidence of Evan’s hard work and you can turn them in to Cassandra for an awesome series of ever-escalating medals that offer EXP bonuses and potion discounts when equipped by an Evan.

Blazing a trail is rewarding work but you must take one step at a time. If you want the Beginner Evan Medal, you must first complete the quest required for Confused Evan Medal. If you want the Confident Evan Medal, you must complete the quest required for Beginner Evan Medal. Work hard enough to earn 3,000 Sweat Droplets and an Elite Evan Medal, and you have a tough call to make--choosing between the 60-day “Evan’s Trailblazer Medal,” and the permanent “Evan’s Eternal Trailblazer Medal.” Choose wisely because once you complete the quest to acquire either medals you can’t repeat the quest to get the other.

Tip: Sweat Droplets are tradable so if you have trouble earning them, make a trade with another Mapler or stop by the Free Market and see if anyone’s offering to sell theirs.
The work of a Dragon Master is hard, but hard work does have its rewards!
Are you ready to blaze a trail with Evan? Get some NX today!

Potion discounts? Sounds useful as an NLC mule.

Why the hell are they putting "GET SOME NX TODAY!" at the end of everything now? It doesn't make sense. With the cash updates, it was understandable, but annoying. Now they're putting it on updates completely unrelated to the cash shop. It's like they want us to think that they care more about money than quality updates.

They expire.
By the way, is this the only Evan level up medal, or just an event medal? Caus the stats suck on it.

Seconded. It got really annoying, it's in every single notice now.

Are the medals supposed to be:
100+400+800+1200+3000 = 5500 or only a total of 3000? x_X

The eternal medal doesnt expire.
And no, you can still get the normal level up medals

I was thinking that the Trailblazer one is useless X_X, judging the only 10% increase and temporary state.

5500 for the expiring one, and 8500 for the permanent one. Judging from how it's worded.

I was under the impression it was 8500 for either one.

On a sidenote, How much would each sweatdrop cost?
100 mesos like rascal pieces?

We don't even know their drop rate.

I´m asuming that they drop like the rascal pieces or maybe half, considering the event lasts for 2 months

so, choose between a 60-day medal with +30 MP and 3 m.attk, as well as 10% exp boost and potion discount, or a permanent one with +40 MP and 4 m.attk...
if they were BOTH permanent, THEN it'd be a real choice to make... no one would pick the former so long as theyre any bit sane.
Also:
If you get one medal, do you lose all the sweat drops you have acquired, or do they accumulate?

10% is a lot, especially for a mage. I remember when Nexon released spirit pendants, I had to choose between 100% 1hkoing (with my MoN) or 89% 1hkoing with my Spirit Pendant. I tested it and gained a lot more exp (1~2m more) with the spirit pendant. But this medal is different. Medals hardly affect your stats at all because the best one (quest specialist) is 3 to all stats. 3 INT is only a negligible amount more than 3 matk, and the medal lasts for 2 months. 2 months of free exp.
That 1 extra matk, even if permanent, isn't going to do much. It's like chairs having no function in the game.

You need to get the first one, then the second one and so on.
So if you ask if you have 1000 drops and get the first one, then you will have 900

I would pick the temporary one. Even if it expires, it might help me save some time and pot mule is also nice. I hope the drops are common.
